The irony

Been there done that. Closed as duplicate.
Gotta love finding the exact issue you're having being asked, and closed as duplicate, and what they say it's a duplicate of isn't even the same issue and doesn't apply to you...

Why would you think it would be different
Because different servers would have different rules and moderators so if one becomes toxic like that you could block the instance and stick to ones that are actually helpful

I remember on the C64 they used to have 'pokes' which were written in assembler.
You'd have to manually typing 500 lines of it. Of course, it almost never worked. The times it did work I used to save it to a tape, I think I had about 9 cheats on it
As a teen, on my zx81 I remember typing line after line of hex numbers.
If the rampack didn't wobble and fail and I hadn't missed a line or entered one twice then I'd play something new.
I must have saved the thing somehow, but I can't remember...

They're the same people posting articles saying how bad AI is while everybody else has fun using it
Nobody cares if you are “playing” with AI. The problem is companies like OpenAI stealing people’s work for training, and stealing their business using that stolen work for profit. Fair use stops at commercial interest and AI is nothing but commercial interest. It’s a layer cake of theft and unfair competition.

People were always scraping data and allowing it to be locked awa. Information brokers are not new. They have always sold our data. Nothing has changed.
I'm not bending over backwards to give a shit for people who have slept to the point that we arrived here with these issues, and now that we finally have something cool they're up in arms because they think their stupid Garfield knockoff comic is the core competent to making AI powerfully profitable. I'd all for removing every content creator from the Internet. Scrub the whole fucking thing. They're parasites

Barking up the wrong tree?

wrote on last edited by [email protected]There is no openAI without content creators. It's a derivative tool, so if some new tool/system comes out it's not gonna know jack shit without the training data.
Now if your beef is with the content platforms, I completely understand that, but saying content creators should be removed, seems a bit myopic

wrote on last edited by [email protected]I fully believe we lost the Internet due to content creators. Once PewDiePie made that first million it was all over. That moment is the point in our timeline where we veered into a very dark timeline instead of the good one. The other point was the Hanging Chad

On C64 you could just type rundot save I think, stick a tape in and press record. I had a little inlay with the counter numbers for each cheat on the tape written on it.

Good riddance. Whenever I search for a programming question I'd always hope for a) an official documentation page or, failing that, b) a page on a dedicated forum for the tool that I was using that covered the problem. I'd only ever click on SO links if I had no other choice.
And, of course, I'd never search for a problem on SO itself.
wrote on last edited by [email protected]SO used to be good, but they have this problem right down in their core concept that makes sure the content gets outdated fast.
And that's the concept that every question can only be asked once.
That makes sure that everything gets outdated as soon as possible.
- Q: Can X be done in framework Y? (asked in 2012)
- A: No.
Now it's 13 years later, and framework Y can do X since 5 years, but you can't ask again, because your question will get closed as a duplicate to the outdated one from 2012. And since every time someone asked this question again in the last 13 years the question just got closed, google will just link you back to the question from 2012 claiming that framework Y can't do X.

SO used to be really good in the past, but these days when I'm looking for an answer to a problem, I only unanswered closed questions.
That's the stupid SO concept that questions can only be asked once. It makes sure that only the question from 2012 with all its outdated answers is available while everyone who asks for an update will get their question closed.
That's why SO was great in 2012 but its rules made sure it got outdated fast.

You're young. Back in my day, we bought a book called "Advanced Algorithms for C vol. 3", and we manually typed the code from it if it didn't come with a CD.
I'm too young for that, but I got a piece of that experience when I bought a physical programming book as a reward from Kickstarter.
Some of the code lines were too long to fit the page and were cut off which added another fun element (though it was pretty rare).

ok but real talk, knees are genuinely one of the most marvellous pieces of biomechanical engineering. They can withstand decades of constant movement, can allow extension (with a lot of force) even when bent 180°, can withstand - and move - hundreds of kg per knee (with enough practice) periodically also for decades, and can comfortably remain with your entire body weight resting on them at any angle from 0 to 180° for any length of time. It's amazing that everyone doesn't have constant knee pain or have their knees simply fail altogether.
As a representative of those who have had a constant knee pain for over a decade: I'm slightly less thrilled about the design.

I thought mine was funny because I had not seen that, and I am humbled. Damn. Fukken saved.
